Start the UX Design Process: Empathize, Define, and Ideate
This section focuses on the first three stages of the UX design process: empathizing with users, defining their needs, and generating creative solutions. Learners practice understanding user problems, framing clear design challenges, and brainstorming innovative ideas. Key takeaways include: Empathize: Conduct user research to understand behaviors, needs, and pain points. Define: Synthesize research findings into problem statements and user personas. Ideate: Explore multiple solutions through brainstorming and creative thinking techniques. Recognize the importance of empathy in human-centered design. Learn to transform insights into actionable design opportunities. By the end of this section, learners will be able to frame user-centered problems effectively and generate a wide range of potential design solutions.

Build Wireframes and Low-Fidelity Prototypes
This section teaches learners how to transform ideas into tangible design representations through wireframes and low-fidelity prototypes. It emphasizes the value of sketching and structuring interfaces before moving into detailed design. Key takeaways include: Wireframes: Create simple layouts that map out the structure, hierarchy, and functionality of a product. Low-Fidelity Prototypes: Build quick, testable models of designs to explore user flows and interactions. Learn the difference between sketches, wireframes, and prototypes. Understand how low-fidelity designs save time, reduce errors, and encourage feedback early. Practice using digital and physical tools to bring ideas to life. By the end of this section, learners will be confident in building early-stage designs that communicate ideas clearly and prepare for usability testing.

Conduct UX Research and Test Early Concepts
This section focuses on gathering user insights and validating design ideas through research and testing. Learners explore methods to understand user needs, test early prototypes, and refine concepts based on feedback. Key takeaways include: Learn qualitative and quantitative UX research methods. Plan and conduct usability studies to evaluate designs. Collect and analyze user feedback to identify patterns and pain points. Test early concepts with real users to validate ideas before moving forward. Understand how research drives informed, user-centered design decisions. By the end of this section, learners will be able to design and run usability studies, interpret findings, and iterate designs to better meet user needs.

Create High-Fidelity Designs and Prototypes in Figma
This section teaches learners how to transform wireframes and low-fidelity prototypes into polished, interactive designs using Figma. Emphasis is placed on visual design, consistency, and realistic user interactions. Key takeaways include: Design visually appealing, pixel-perfect interfaces in Figma. Apply typography, color schemes, and spacing for a cohesive UI. Build interactive, high-fidelity prototypes to simulate real user experiences. Learn design best practices and Figma features for efficiency. Prepare designs for usability testing or handoff to developers. By the end of this section, learners will be able to create professional, interactive prototypes that accurately represent the final product and enhance user experience.

Build Dynamic User Interfaces (UI) for Websites
This section focuses on creating interactive and responsive web interfaces that enhance user engagement. Learners explore the principles of modern UI design and how to implement dynamic elements for a seamless experience. Key takeaways include: Understand UI principles for web design, including layout, navigation, and responsiveness. Create interactive components such as buttons, menus, forms, and animations. Learn to design user interfaces that adapt to different devices and screen sizes. Integrate usability and accessibility best practices into dynamic interfaces. Apply tools and techniques to bring static designs to life with interactivity. By the end of this section, learners will be able to design and implement dynamic, user-friendly web interfaces that improve usability and engagement.

Design a User Experience for Social Good & Prepare for Jobs
